This analysis uses Suburbs and Localities (SAL) boundaries, which can materially differ from Statistical Areas (SA2) even when sharing the same name.
SAL boundaries are defined by Australia Post and the Australian Bureau of Statistics to represent commonly-known suburb names used in postal addresses.
Statistical Areas (SA2) are designed for census data collection and may combine multiple suburbs or use different geographic boundaries. For comprehensive analysis, consider reviewing both boundary types if available.

Sales Detail
Wyoming has an estimated 10,038 residents, down from 10,111 at the 2021 Census. That puts 1,406 residents on each square kilometre. Population is estimated from ABS Estimated Resident Population releases and GNAF address data, re-based from the 2021 Census and updated annually.
Detail
As of Aug 2026, the population of the suburb of Wyoming is estimated at around 10,038, according to AreaSearch analysis of broader ABS population updates alongside 12 validated new addresses recorded since the Census. In comparison to the 10,111 people counted at the 2021 Census, this represents a reduction of 73 people (0.7%). The updated figure draws upon an estimated resident population of 10,036 established following ABS release of June 2025 ERP data combined with the post-Census address validations. Demographic density stands at 1,405 persons per square kilometer, tracking above the typical level observed nationally by AreaSearch.
Recent population expansion in the suburb of Wyoming was driven almost entirely by overseas migration, which served as the primary contributor to headcount additions. Projections utilized by AreaSearch incorporate ABS/Geoscience Australia SA2 modeling released in 2024 with 2022 as the base year, supplemented where necessary by NSW State Government SA2 forecasts issued in 2022 with 2021 as the base year. Age-group growth trajectories from these sources are applied across the 2032 to 2041 timeframe. Under this framework, demographic forecasts point to an overall contraction for the suburb of Wyoming, with the total count projected to decline by 146 persons by 2041. Despite this overall reduction, growth is anticipated within specific cohorts, led by the 85 and over age bracket, which is projected to expand by 327 people.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
39 new dwellings have been approved in Wyoming over the past five years, an average of 7 a year. That is 0.8 approvals per 1,000 residents. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 8, broadly in line with that longer-run average. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this Suburb (SAL) boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
ABS building approval figures examined by AreaSearch indicate that Wyoming has averaged around 7 residential approvals annually, accumulating an estimated 39 homes across the past 5 financial years. During FY-25 to date, 8 approvals have been logged. In the context of recent population contraction, this rate of construction activity provides adequate supply for purchasers, with newly approved dwellings carrying an average expected construction cost of $383,000, which sits below the regional benchmark and suggests accessible entry pricing. Furthermore, commercial building approvals have reached $2.2 million this financial year, reinforcing the suburb's primary orientation toward residential development.
Per capita residential construction in Wyoming trails Greater Sydney substantially, sitting 78.0% below the regional average. Such constrained addition of new dwellings typically bolsters valuation and competition across established properties. This subdued volume also falls below the national standard, reflecting an established urban fabric and pointing to potential planning limitations. Approvals are composed of 88.0% detached houses alongside 12.0% medium and high-density housing, sustaining the low-density suburban landscape sought by space-oriented buyers. With a ratio of around 1338 people per dwelling approval, the locality displays characteristics of an entrenched property market. Given forecasts of stable or contracting population numbers, residential demand pressures across Wyoming could soften, establishing supportive market dynamics for prospective purchasers.

4,764 residents of Wyoming are employed, from a labour force of 4,981. Unemployment sits at 4.4%, with participation at 60.5%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.8% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 8,598, about 86% of the resident population, so more people leave the area for work than travel in. Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.
Detail
Workforce indicators compiled by AreaSearch show Wyoming maintains a capable labor pool with solid representation in essential services, recording an unemployment rate of 4.4% alongside estimated annual employment growth of 3.6%. As of March 2026, employed residents total 4,764, with the local jobless rate tracking 0.2% higher than Greater Sydney's 4.1%. Labor force participation is comparatively subdued at 60.5%, trailing the Greater Sydney benchmark of 68.9%. Additionally, Census metrics showed 30.8% of local workers operating from home, an outcome influenced by prevailing Covid-19 restrictions. The principal industries employing local residents are health care & social assistance, retail trade, and construction.
A clear economic concentration exists within health care & social assistance, where the local employment proportion is 1.4 times the regional level. Conversely, professional & technical roles account for only 6.6% of local employment, well beneath the 11.5% seen across Greater Sydney. Comparing the resident workforce against the number of local jobs recorded at the Census highlights that the suburb remains predominantly residential with fewer employment positions based locally. Aggregated SALM and ABS records analyzed by AreaSearch indicate that across the 12 months to March 2026, local employment expanded by 3.6% while the labor pool expanded by 3.5%, keeping overall unemployment steady. Across Greater Sydney over the same timeframe, employment climbed 1.9%, the labor force expanded by 1.9%, and unemployment declined slightly. Looking forward, Jobs and Skills Australia national employment projections from Mar-26 provide context for future industry demand across five and ten-year horizons. Nationally, employment is projected to rise by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years. Weighting these sector forecasts against Wyoming's specific industry distribution suggests potential local employment growth of 6.8% over five years and 14.2% over ten years, representing an illustrative proportional extrapolation without adjustment for localized demographic trends.

How the numbers are built
Population
The Census provides the small-area baseline, aggregated from mesh blocks to this boundary. It is then re-based to the ABS Estimated Resident Population (June 2025 release), and new dwellings built since Census night are counted from address data — 12 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for Aug 2026, not a 2021 count (10,111 at the 2021 Census → 10,038 now). Annual growth rates are compound (CAGR), not simple averages.
Age profile
Cohort shares are not raw Census counts. Every cohort is held as a pair — the Census baseline and a current estimate — and the split is re-based using ERP and state population projections, current to Aug 2026. Median age is the Census median plus modelled change since. Charts that show both are labelled "2021 Census vs Current Estimate".
Property sales
Sourced from the state valuation authority's sales register — current, not Census, and refreshed weekly. Medians are calculated from settled transactions in the period shown; periods with very low transaction counts are flagged or suppressed, because a handful of sales can move a median substantially.
Rents
Derived from state rental bond lodgement data, by dwelling type and bedroom count. Bonds are lodged at the start of a new tenancy, so this reflects new lettings, not the whole rented stock.
Development & infrastructure
Building approvals come from current ABS releases; development applications are collected from council and state planning portals; the infrastructure pipeline is compiled from Infrastructure Australia and local government sources. Applications are matched to this boundary by address or coordinates, so very recent lodgements may not yet appear.
Employment & income
Industry and occupation structure comes from the Census, but the headline labour-market indicators do not. Unemployment and labour force are derived from ABS Small Area Labour Markets (quarterly). The employment outlook applies Department of Employment forecasts for all 19 industry divisions to this area's own industry mix (the agency is now Jobs and Skills Australia), as does the Internet Vacancy Index used for job demand. Because it is weighted on industry composition alone, that outlook carries no allowance for local population growth — in fast-growing areas the real rise in local jobs will typically be higher. Income combines Census household income with ATO taxable-income statistics for FY 2023, indexed forward using the Wage Price Index.
Education, transport & amenities
School enrolments, ICSEA and performance come from ACARA's current release, not the Census. Public transport stops and service frequency are derived from GTFS timetable feeds published by state transport departments. Services and amenities are proximity and count scores built from provider directories, refreshed on their own cycle. The Census contributes only the travel-to-work and qualification measures.
Rankings and benchmarks. Where we rank this area, the comparison set is every area of the same boundary type — suburbs against suburbs, SA2s against SA2s. Benchmarks compare this area against its greater capital city region and the national figure for the same measure and period.
Limits worth knowing. Small areas carry larger error margins, and the ABS introduces small random adjustments to Census counts to protect confidentiality — so totals may not sum exactly. Estimates re-based from regional data describe the area's expected trajectory, not a direct count of it. Figures are indicative for research and are not financial, planning or valuation advice.
